Fungi are the kingdom that live on land and absorb nutrients from other living or nonliving things. They obtain nutrients through the process of decomposition or by forming symbiotic relationships with plants or other organisms.
Coral polyps provide a home and nutrients for algae through photosynthesis, while the algae provide oxygen and essential nutrients to the coral polyps through their waste. This mutualistic relationship, known as coral-algae symbiosis, helps both organisms thrive in nutrient-poor ocean environments.
Living elements in an ecosystem include plants, animals, fungi, and microorganisms, while nonliving elements consist of sunlight, water, air, soil, and temperature. These components interact and depend on each other to maintain balance and support life in the ecosystem.
indeed.
Coral rely on a type of algae called zooxanthellae which give corals colour and nutrients.
Coral mining is where you go deep down into the coral to find special nutrients which are very valuble. Miners rip apart the coral to get deep into the undergrowth and search for nutrients. As they go into the coral, whilst ripping it apart, it is killing the quantity of the coral. Therefore this is a major threat.
The "Coral Kingdom" lives on land and absorbs its food from other living or nonliving things.
because they eat coral and crustations to survive. You cant find that it the middle of the sea.
Yes, because algae provide coral reef with nutrients
No, starfish can move. Coral cannot move. Starfish have a mouth with which to eat. Coral bring in nutrients through tendrils.
No, coral is a living organism. It is made up of tiny animals called polyps that secrete calcium carbonate to form a hard exoskeleton. Coral reefs are formed when many coral colonies grow together in a compact structure.
Yes. Most sea animals need coral to survive.
